Making Faces

Product Information

It's difficult to write a review that could even remotely explain how this story decimated my heart. In the parts where they were in Iraq, all they did were talk about girls. I never got the feeling that they were actually fighting in a war, up until the last scene in Iraq where road-side bomb exploded. And even that was a very short scene. Ambrose doesn’t feel worthy of Fern’s love. She could have any man. Why would she want him with his scarred face and scarred heart?

I must admit that this story's raw power and heartbreaking scenarios had me in an almost constant fit of tears. But it was a beautiful cry fest. I cried for a Fern — for believing she was so incredibly insignificant because of her unremarkable appearance. I cried for Ambrose's quiet strength, humility, and decency—which was all I saw in both his beautiful and "beastly" state. And for Bailey — who so desperately craved becoming a hero, never realizing he was one all along. I just loved the depth of the author’s writing, the feelings, the friendships. I could go on and on but simply put.. The end of this book broke my heart and made me rage. Okay, the very end was a good ending. But before that I just, there was, WAIT . . .This book was recommended to me by Jenny the Book Sojourner ( http://booksojourner.blogspot.com/) and now I have to add her to my Festivus card list and send her a thank you bouquet of flowers.

Making Faces sends a messages to the reader. For me the one word that came to mind is Perception. We all have our own perceptions, when you look at someone how does your perception of them differ from someone else. What constitutes beauty and is our understanding of it flawed. Fern and Ambrose connect in highschool in an unexpected way. Through letters. Ambrose doesn’t know that Fern is replying to his letters.

There are no other skin care routine that could be as permanent as changing life habit: exercise, good diet and practice "safe sun" There's so much beauty to be found in this story, and not nearly enough words to adequately honor it. This book starts off simple — discreet even — with an undeniable depth and wisdom that slowly sneaks up and consumes you. Its incredible insight is gently suggested, but powerfully received. With an expertly smooth execution, this author makes it all seem entirely effortless as she strips down life to its bare components, revealing the grace from within. I fell in love with these lovingly broken and perfectly flawed characters, who each represented a unique piece of the same puzzle.This story is brilliantly told in a narrative format of Fern, Baily, Rita, Ambrose and the friends and families of Hannah Lakes, PA. The heroine, Fern, had been in love with Ambrose from the time they were kids. Problem was, he barely knew she existed - at least, not in the way she wanted. He was the school's star athlete and she was just a shy, forgettable girl who never imaged that anyone as handsome as him would ever take notice of her. Ambrose Young is the kind of guy that everybody loves. The guys want to be him and the girls just want him. He's the high school wrestling star, destined to do great things. On top of that, he's extremely attractive and popular. Yet, there is a softer, more romantic side to Ambrose that few people ever get to see. Carl Sandburg who had a penchant for incorporating familiar similes into his work, quoted this in his poem, New Hampshire Again. A dry energetic face which seemed to press forward with the spring of his prominent features, as though it were the weapon with which he cleared his way through the world —Edith Wharton
